Study evaluates AD methods for fraud detection in online credit card payments.
Standard economic theory, starting with Adam Smith's invisible hand, holds that those who trade for their own selfish motives of maximizing their private preferences may contribute more to the public wealth than those who claim altruistic motives. Under restrictive conditions, this has been shown to result from a self-…
Payment card fraud causes multibillion dollar losses for banks and merchants worldwide, often fueling complex criminal activities. To address this, many real-time fraud detection systems use tree-based models, demanding complex feature engineering systems to efficiently enrich transactions with historical data while co…
Machine learning and data mining techniques have been used extensively in order to detect credit card frauds. However, most studies consider credit card transactions as isolated events and not as a sequence of transactions. In this article, we model a sequence of credit card transactions from three different perspectiv…

This paper builds a machine learning model to predict credit defaults for unsecured lending.
Adaptive Stress Testing detects financial fraud by simulating potential failures.
Historically, games of all kinds have often been the subject of study in scientific works of Computer Science, including the field of machine learning. By using machine learning techniques and applying them to a game with defined rules or a structured dataset, it's possible to learn and improve on the already existing …
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is an important driving force for the development and transformation of the financial industry. However, with the fast-evolving AI technology and application, unintentional bias, insufficient model validation, immature contingency plan and other underestimated threats may expose the company…
Game theory applied to financial networks, focusing on debt repayment strategies.
CaT-GNN improves credit card fraud detection by integrating causal reasoning into GNNs.
CARD models predict the distribution of continuous or categorical responses.
A new model calculates optimal clearing payments in dynamic financial networks.
Money flow models are essential tools to understand different economical phenomena, like saving propensities and wealth distributions. In spite of their importance, most of them are based on synthetic transaction networks with simple topologies, e.g. random or scale-free ones, as the characterisation of real networks i…
Paper predicts in-situ metro passenger density using smart card data.
The paper examines clearing payments in financial networks to prevent cascaded defaults.
Semi-supervised GANs with log-signatures improve credit card fraud detection.
Study evaluates SHAP for credit card default model consistency.
A new method streamlines digital payment programming using smart contracts.
Distributionally Robust Optimization (DRO) has been shown to provide a flexible framework for decision making under uncertainty and statistical estimation. For example, recent works in DRO have shown that popular statistical estimators can be interpreted as the solutions of suitable formulated data-driven DRO problems.…
We introduce a new virtual environment for simulating a card game known as "Big 2". This is a four-player game of imperfect information with a relatively complicated action space (being allowed to play 1,2,3,4 or 5 card combinations from an initial starting hand of 13 cards). As such it poses a challenge for many curre…
In this study, we employ Generative Adversarial Networks as an oversampling method to generate artificial data to assist with the classification of credit card fraudulent transactions. GANs is a generative model based on the idea of game theory, in which a generator G and a discriminator D are trying to outsmart each o…
ARIMA model detects credit card fraud in unbalanced datasets.
The credit cards' fraud transactions detection is the important problem in machine learning field. To detect the credit cards's fraud transactions help reduce the significant loss of the credit cards' holders and the banks. To detect the credit cards' fraud transactions, data scientists normally employ the unsupervised…
Study optimizes classifiers for credit card mail campaigns and default prediction.
In order to scale transaction rates for deployment across the global web, many cryptocurrencies have deployed so-called "Layer-2" networks of private payment channels. An idealized payment network behaves like a Credit Network, a model for transactions across a network of bilateral trust relationships. Credit Networks …
Analyzes how financial network dependencies can lead to multiple equilibrium outcomes and optimal bailout strategies.
CARD detects treatment responders with machine learning and adjustment.
Deep reinforcement learning (DRL) has gained a lot of attention in recent years, and has been proven to be able to play Atari games and Go at or above human levels. However, those games are assumed to have a small fixed number of actions and could be trained with a simple CNN network. In this paper, we study a special …
Optimizes cash management in ATM networks to reduce costs and increase revenue.
DyFEn simulates blockchain for fee setting in payment channels.
Machine learning and data mining techniques have been used extensively in order to detect credit card frauds. However purchase behaviour and fraudster strategies may change over time. This phenomenon is named dataset shift or concept drift in the domain of fraud detection. In this paper, we present a method to quantify…
The aim of this paper is to get an overview of the online buyer profile, and also some key aspects in the way the online shopping is conducted. In this project we conducted a quantitative research, consisting of a questionnaire based survey. For data processing and interpretation we used SPSS statistical software and E…
Mobile payment such as Alipay has been widely used in our daily lives. To further promote the mobile payment activities, it is important to run marketing campaigns under a limited budget by providing incentives such as coupons, commissions to merchants. As a result, incentive optimization is the key to maximizing the c…

Expert system predicts credit card charge-offs using macroeconomic indicators.
Neural networks improve loss reserving with case estimates and transaction data.
Paper introduces balanced payment systems to improve liquidity and risk management.
We present a model of credit card profitability, assuming that the card-holder always pays the full outstanding balance. The motivation for the model is to calculate an optimal credit limit, which requires an expression for the expected outstanding balance. We derive its Laplace transform, assuming that purchases are m…

NetDP predicts loan defaults using network data, addressing cold-start issues.
This paper presents the first topological analysis of the economic structure of an entire country based on payments data obtained from Swedbank. This data set is exclusive in its kind because around 80% of Estonia's bank transactions are done through Swedbank, hence, the economic structure of the country can be reconst…
This paper summarizes AI methods for detecting credit card fraud.
Credit risk modelling is an integral part of the global financial system. While there has been great attention paid to neural network models for credit default prediction, such models often lack the required interpretation mechanisms and measures of the uncertainty around their predictions. This work develops and compa…
In this paper we study the implications of contingent payments on the clearing wealth in a network model of financial contagion. We consider an extension of the Eisenberg-Noe financial contagion model in which the nominal interbank obligations depend on the wealth of the firms in the network. We first consider the prob…
